Woah

Tomorrow I leave for California. I'm going there for my first time (this is, of course, if everything goes according to plan, which God willing it will). At 6 am Miami time, I shall board a plane headed for Chicago, and from Chicago I shall fly to Los Angeles. Jesse will be waiting at LAX to pick my mum and I up and take us home to Burbank. On that same day--

I will visit CalArts.

Let me say that again so I can feel it in my mouth, get a taste for the concept. What? Going to California, visiting CalArts, road trip from there to Las Vegas, a stop by Angela's Peak, driving lessons from Jesse, a visit to the Santa Monica bay, fireworks display for New Years at Vegas, visiting Keith, maybe a stop by Walnut...

Wow. What is this? Is that me? Is this happening?

You see, this wasn't really going to happen at all...not until this afternoon, actually, not until 7 pm THIS EVENING when we booked the tickets for the plane. And this all wasn't even suggested until last night.
